Is it a good idea to use something like the Twitter Bootstrap in production?at the same time this means a new developer misses out the steps of creating tabs, sliders and the other elements provided in Bootstrap themselves, negating their learning - certainly using twitter bootstrap is good, but then again creating your own UIs and doing things your own way is realistically the only way to better yourself as a developer / UX engineer

Working on someone else's code@gnat for sure, I totally agree, however (no offence to OP) this company does not sound like the type that would have a QA team, let alone colleagues hand picking predecessors, as it has relatively inexperienced programmers working on code that an experienced programmer authored, with no guidance or info, let alone experience. (I think we can both agree this company needs to rethink its process of editing and updating code)

Working on someone else's code@gnat again that could be merely down to OPs inexperience and lack of knowledge. if I went into a colleague's function, deleted a line of essential code, put said code live and broke it, that's down to my negligence, not structurally unsound code

Working on someone else's code@gnat I don't think we know whether the existing code is structurally unsound - 1 years experience isn't a lot and an "inexperienced" coder jumping into an experienced coders work could be the problem here
